To all 'whom t may concern:

Be `itlniown that I, I-IoWnLL .C1-Inner, a citizenv ofthe United `States,.residing South Manchesterg .county .1 of'` Hartford,

State `of Conneticut, .have invented. a Certain new and vuseful, Improvementfin Neckties, of which the folloirving` isi-,a full, clear, and .exactdescription. f i j /Iy invention relates to inlprovementsffin neclties and has forits object to lprodiloe-,a

` tie havingilseparately .p formed i neckband and being: much longer than theextension on the front side and`V extending to .i the` body portion of its tying end.; y

y. The following is a `description of my invention, reference vbeing hadgto the accoman ino' dravvinosf in-Which: 3 C 7 Figurel is a. front View of .a tie .embody- Fig. 2 is a rear. View offthe same;` Fig. 3 is ra section;4 of the upper end on the line 3-3, Fig.` 2;

Fig. 4 is a section of the lowerendwontthe line 4.4, Fig. 2; l.

Fig. 5 is a separate View of the neckband portion with its extensions, and

Fig. 6 shows a modification.

Referring more particularly to the drawings, l is a neckband portion so constructed as to have tWo integral extensions at each of its tWo ends. I preferably make the portion of it Which lies betweenl the extensions tubular throughout, which can be done by the Weaving upon a suitable loom, or by sewing together the edges of two strips.

Upon the ends of the outer side of this tubu- 4 lar neckband short extensions, 2, 2 are formed and on the ends of the inner side of said neekband longer extensions 3, 3 are formed. 4, 4 are the tying ends which are separately formed, and the small extremities 5, 5, of Which are inserted Within the tubular ends of the neckband portion. These tying ends are made from cut fabric folded into two-ply form so that the edges lie along the-brine Portions t4- lii; t, produced ,l li,n. `Whieh 1 the tying j i ends are E.rmly secured.y te ithelnekband. .portion and r.

serted` Withiinthe tubular end portions of `the gneckband `with. :the long extensions 3, 3 adjacent ftothe innerg faces of said :tying ends, V.are `secured to said ineokband portion byI stitches 6, l 6 `.passing #through both `plies of ythe .neckband' portion and the "intervening portions of the tying ends, i'lffhe' `ends through said l, rear plyA and` #hei ends 3, 3 Without` passing through the front; side@ of wey n ,tie

in "which .an extension;integral1 with l the `central y rpart `Aof the neclrbaiid porti-on, tends. `yell `down the .rear y ,pliesj aof the tying ends to the body portionl thereof-,1 andfisjsecured i thereto j; so L as to l, not only maire s the ,y

Thesmall, extremities `oii'lithe two tying ends beinginend a lining ofA soft material 8, 8', suclias @enten eeeet Whehf s-apnltesimatly the shape of the tying end, and'has one end exused, I cause the stitches 7, 7 securing the extensions 3, 3 to the rear fold of the tying ends, to engage said lining. As an additional means of keeping the lining in place, I secure it to the rear ply only of` the tying ends by transverse lines of stitches 9, as shown in Figs. 2 and 4. This lining is out straight, as distinguished from being cut on the bias, so as to resist, Without substantial stretching, any pull which may come thereon.

With a tie so constructed, the parts Will be firmlyV secured and there Will be little liability of the ties stretching or getting out of shape When in use, and furthermore the neckband being thin and of an easy slipping character, Will move easily Within a turned-down collar When being applied.

The neckband portion shown in Figs. l to 4 is composed of a central portion 1 which is Woven tubular, the extensions e, 3 and t",

3 being Woven integral therewith and with separated selvage edges., Fig. 6 shows a modification in'which the neckband is made up of two ribbons seWed together by stitches 10, 10 so as to form the tubular portion 1 of the neckband. The long extension 3 is essential to my invention, and for appearance and economy, I prefer to have the small extensions 2, 2 also.

V The neckband l.portion herein. described and the-method of making the same are described and claimed-iny my pending applicaytion Serial No. 222,873, filed March 16, 1918.

As Will be evident to those skilled-in the art, my invention permits of various modifications without departing from the spirit thereof or the scopeof the appended claims.

- g What I claim is:

A 1. Av necktie, having a separately formed tying end and a neckband portion, said neckband portion being tWo-ply adjacent to said tying end and having an elongated extension from one of its plies extending for av considerable distance beyond the other ply and-along the rear surface of its tying end to the body portion thereof, and stitches securing said plies to opposite sides of said Vtying end and said `extension to the rear end.

y 3.` A? necktie, having al folded two-ply tying end portion, a neckband portion secured thereto, said neckband portion having a tubular end portion into which said tying end extends, and having separated extensions along both sides of said tying end, the extension along the rear of said tying end extending to the body thereof, and being longer than the other extension, and stitches securing said extensions to said tying end.

4. A necktie having a separately formed tying end and a neckband portion, said neckband portion beingtwo-ply adjacent to said tying end and having an elongated extension from one of its plies extending for a considerable distance beyond the other ply and along the rear surface of its tying end to the body portion thereof, stitches securing said plies to opposite sides of said tying end and said extension to the rear side of said tying end, and a lining Within said tying end also extending between the two plies of said two-ply portion and secured thereto and to said elongated extension.

5. A necktie having a separately formed tying end and a neckband portion, said neekband portion being two-ply adjacent to said tying end and having an elongated extension from one of its plies extending for a considerable distance beyond the other ply and along` the rear surface of its tying end to the body portion thereof, stitches securing said plies to opposite sides of said tying end and said extension to the rear side of said tying end, a lining` within said tying end also extending between the two plies of said two-ply portion and secured thereto and to said elongated extension, and

(Luniesv of this patent may be obtained'forive cents each, by addressing the Commissioner of Patents.
